Hi there,
Recently I've noticed that the working pressure on my German-made (Lunapets) pressure regulator fluctuates between 2 and 2.5 bar every 10 seconds of so. It seems to affect the bubble rate in the bubble counter.
It only happens when the solenoid is on and if the needle valve is open. If the solenoid is on but the needle valve closed, there's no fluctuation.
It still happens even if I remove the CO2 tubing from the solenoid so I think I can discount any leaks 'downstream'.
So based on this evidence, do you agree that my needle valve is to blame and not the regulator itself?
Thanks,
P
